Pulmonary Resection for Life-Threatening Hemoptysis in Cystic Fibrosis
Authors: Sidney Levitsky
Journal: JAMA (1970)

An increased incidence of hemoptysis in young adults with cystic fibrosis associated with a high mortality has been recently noted. Because of bilateral diffuse pulmonary involvement and decreased respiratory reserve, surgical intervention has been avoided. An 18-year-old girl with cystic fibrosis and massive hemoptysis underwent pneumonectomy 11 months ago and is presently well. To our knowledge, this is the first patient with cystic fibrosis and life-threatening hemoptysis to undergo an emergency pulmonary resection.

Potentiation of Anticancer Agents by New Synthetic Isoprenoids. II. Inhibition of the Growth of Transplantable Murine Tumors&lt;xref ref-type="fn" rid="FN1"&gt;2&lt;/xref&gt;
Journal: JNCI Journal of the National Cancer Institute (1984)

The antitumor effects of combinations of synthetic isoprenoids-decaprenylamine·HCl, N-(p-methylbenzyl)decaprenylamine·HCl [N-(PMB)-decaprenylamin·HCI], and decaprenoic acid—with anticancer agents were studied in male ICR mice with ascites sarcoma 180 (S180) and in male BALB/c mice with fibrosarcoma Meth A. Decaprenylamine·HCl, N-(PMB)-decaprenylamine·HCl, and decaprenoic acid were tested in combination with bleomycin A2 (BLM) on S180. Decaprenoic acid was also examined in combination with BLM or 5-fluorouracil (FUra) for effects on fibrosarcoma Meth A. The dosages of synthetic isoprenoids used in the combination therapy were much below the median lethal dose. In the low-dosage schedule, decaprenylamine·HCl, N-(PMB)-decaprenylamine·HCl or decaprenoic acid considerably enhanced the antitumor effect of BLM on S180; e.g., the T/C value (mean survival time of treated mice/mean survival time of controls) for decaprenylamine·HCI plus BLM, N-(PMB)-decaprenylamine·HCl plus BLM, or decaprenoic acid plus BLM was 294, 357, and 279%, respectively, and the combinations increased life-span 2.4-fold, 2.3-fold, or 1.8-fold, respectively, as compared to the effects of BLM alone. The combination of BLM or FUra with decaprenoic acid, when administered by iv injection to mice with fibrosarcoma Meth A (solid tumor system), did not produce synergism. However, a preventive effect of decaprenoic acid monotherapy was observed: Decaprenoic acid at 3 mg/kg resulted in 38.9% suppression of tumor growth 21 days after inoculation.
The Hygienic Principles of Moses Maimonides
Authors: Fred Rosner
Journal: JAMA (1965)

The life and medical writings of Moses Maimonides have recently been commented upon.<sup>1</sup>One of the more popular of Maimonides' medical works is the<i>Treatise on Hygiene</i>which was written in Arabic in 1199 at the request of the Sultan AlMalik Al Afdal, eldest son of Saladin the Great of Egypt. It was translated into Hebrew and Latin by Moses Ibn Tibbon and John Di Capua, respectively, in the 13th century. Recently, German<sup>2</sup>and English<sup>3,4</sup>versions as well as a new Hebrew edition<sup>5</sup>have appeared. However, Maimonides' other theological and rabbinic works also contain numerous references to personal and physical hygiene. In volume 1 of his massive codification of biblical and talmudic law, the<i>Mishneh Torah</i>, an entire chapter is devoted exclusively to principles of hygiene. This, chapter 4 of the laws dealing with temperaments (Hilchoth De'oth), is presented here in its entirety, translated from the original
Effect of Dipyridamole on Kidney Function in Cirrhosis
Authors: Josep Llach, Pere Ginès, Vicente Arroyo, Joan Manuel Salmerón, Angels Ginès, Joan Rodés, Wladimiro Jiménez, Joan Gaya, Francisca Rivera
Journal: Hepatology (1993)

Adenosine is a potent endogenous renal vasoconstrictor. To investigate the sensitivity of the renal circulation to adenosine in cirrhosis, we evaluated kidney function and vasoactive hormones in 20 patients with cirrhosis before and after administration of dipyridamole (0.4 mg/kg, intravenously), a drug that increases extracellular levels of adenosine. In patients with ascites and increased plasma renin activity (6.9 ± 4.0 ng/ml hr [mean ± S.D.]) (n = 7), dipyridamole induced marked reductions in renal plasma flow (from 623 ± 294 to 374 ± 188 ml/min, p = 0.03), glomerular filtration rate (from 89 ± 22 to 48 ± 16 ml/min, p = 0.009), urine volume (from 7.1 ± 2.1 to 1.5 ± 1.1 ml/min, p = 0.0001), free water clearance (from 4.0 ± 1.7 to 0.4 ± 0.6 ml/min, p = 0.001) and sodium excretion (from 28 ± 36 to 7 ± 15 μEq/min, p = 0.05) in the absence of changes in arterial pressure, plasma renin activity and levels of aldosterone, norepinephrine and antidiuretic hormone. In patients without ascites (n = 5) and in patients with ascites and normal plasma renin activity (0.9 ± 0.5 ng/ml hr) (n = 8), renal plasma flow and glomerular filtration rate did not change significantly after dipyridamole administration, whereas excretion of sodium and free water was reduced. These results indicate that in cirrhotic patients with ascites and overactivity of the renin-angiotensin system, dipyridamole induces renal vasoconstriction in the absence of changes in systemic hemodynamics, suggesting that these patients are particularly sensitive to the renal vasoconstrictor effect of endogenous adenosine.

A Fundamental Unit of Peace
Authors: Edmunds Grey Dimond
Journal: JAMA (1984)

The article by Steven Fox in this issue ofThe Journal(p 490) is one more useful view of the largest social experiment of our time—China—as it again seeks its prime position among nations. From the first openings for American observers in 1971 down to the present, the two nations have had an obvious affinity, an affinity that painfully and dangerously we have not been able to find with the other major communist power. Why we have a separated, hostile relationship with the society that shares our own Caucasian, Greco-Roman origins, but a societal romance with an extremely different oriental system, is not a question of idle curiosity—but perhaps the ultimate challenge of our times. Why hasThe Journal, from January of 1972 continuing through this week, been able to present a sequence of information about medical affairs in China and almost no similar reports on Russian institutions? Why have
Disturbances of Heart Rate, Rhythm and Conduction.
Journal: Annals of Internal Medicine (1962)

The original edition has been expanded and rewritten.New subjects have been added, including techniques of inhalation anesthesia, carbon dioxide absorption, the physiological effects of hypercarbia, special procedures such as hypothermia, hypnosis and deliberate hypotension, intra- venous technique and therapy, respiratory resuscitation, pulmonary function, mechanical ventilation and medicine and the law.In general the book is divided into seven main topics which consist of: (1) The preanesthetic period, (2) The day of anesthesia, (3) During operation, (4) The post- operative period, (5) Resuscitation (cardiac and respira- tory), ( 6) The anesthetist as a consultant, (7) Special topics.Under these main topics most of the problems encountered by an anesthesiologist from his first interview with the patient and his evaluation of the risk and selection of the type of anesthetic indicated, through the actual administration and the postoperative recovery period are discussed in a lucid, concise manner.The techniques and methods described are those that have worked best for the authors and should be studied and evaluated by all students and practicing anesthesiologists.
Report on the Consensus Workshop on Formaldehyde
Authors: Michael Gough, Adalbert Koestner, Robert Neal, Kenneth Powell, Herbert Rosenkranz, Ronald Hart, Angelo Terturro, Lorraine Neimeth, William Mccallum, Ian Nisbet, Bernd Seifert, Jean Balmat, John Fajen, Richard Gammage, Eugene Kennedy, Michael Silverstein, E Acheson, Kenneth Rothman, Aaron Blair, John Gamble, Peter Infante, Keith Long, Edward Mortimer, Richard Griese, Craig Boreiko, Frederick De Serres, Victor Feron, J Mccormick, James Swenberg, Leon Golberg, Marc Schenker, Jean Chen, Michael Colligan, Anna Seppalainen
Journal: Environmental Health Perspectives (1984)

The Consensus Workshop on Formaldehyde consisted of bringing together scientists from academia, government, industry and public interest groups to address some important toxicological questions concerning the health effects of formaldehyde.The participants in the workshop, the Executive Panel which coordinated the meeting, and the questions posed, all were chosen through a broadly based nomination process in order to achieve as comprehensive a consensus as possible.The subcommittees considered the toxicological problems associated with formaldehyde in the areas of exposure, epidemiology, carcinogenicity/histology/genotoxicity, immunology/sensitization/irritation, structure activity/biochemis- try/metabolism, reproduction/teratology, behavior/neurotoxicity/psychology and risk estimation.Some questions considered included the possible human carcinogenicity of formaldehyde, as well as other human health effects, and the interpretation of pathology induced by formaldehyde.These reports, plus introductory material on the procedures used in setting up the Consensus Workshop are presented here.Additionally, there is included a listing of the data base that was made available to the panel chairmen prior to the meeting and was readily accessible to the participants during their deliberations in the meeting.This data base, since it was computerized, was also capable of being searched for important terms.These materials were supplemented by information brought by the panelists.The workshop has defined the consensus concerning a number of major points in formaldehyde toxicology and has identified a number of major deficits in understanding which are important guides to future research.
Hand difficulties among musicians
Authors: F. H. Hochberg
Journal: JAMA (1983)

We describe our experience with 100 musicians in whom occupationrelated difficulties developed. The majority, pianists, experienced hand difficulties in midcareer (average age, 31 years). These were described as "pain, tightening, or weakness" of the right hand or arm or drooping of the fourth or fifth fingers. These difficulties led to loss of control (34%) or diminished facility (18%), endurance (18%), or speed (18%) while playing trills, arpeggios, or octaves requiring fast, forte finger movements. Most commonly found were inflammatory disorders of tendon or joint (45%) or disorders of motor control (24%). Less likely were entrapment of peripheral nerves and noninflammatory tendon or joint disorders. (<i>JAMA</i>1983;249:1869-1872)
Mycotic Aneurysm of the External Iliac Artery
Authors: Fred M. Feinsod
Journal: JAMA (1977)

MYCOTIC aneurysms may complicate the course of patients with<i>Salmonella</i>bacteremia. Such aneurysms usually occur in the aorta, but may arise in the femoral and popliteal arteries, or infrequently in an iliac artery.<sup>1,2</sup>The majority of mycotic aneurysms are associated with few localizing signs and rupture before a definitive diagnosis is established. By contrast, mycotic aneurysms of the external iliac artery may produce localizing signs that facilitate early recognition. The first reported case of this lesion<sup>2</sup>was marked by arterial insufficiency, femoral neuropathy, and bacteremia. In the present case (the second reported to our knowledge), there is a similar triad of signs suggesting that such manifestations generally accompany this lesion. <h3>Report of a Case</h3> A 62-year-old woman was admitted to St Joseph's Hospital because of recurrent fever and right leg pain. Twenty-nine years earlier, a complete hysterectomy had been performed on the patient followed by radiation treatments for

Causes of Neonatal Mortality
Authors: M. Bader
Journal: JAMA (1984)

<h3>To the Editor.—</h3> In "Lethal Congenital Anomalies as a Cause of Birth-Weight-Specific Neonatal Mortality," Goldenberg and colleagues<sup>1</sup>note that almost 45% of Alabama infants with birth weights of 2,500 g or more who die during the first month of life have lethal congenital anomalies. The corresponding figure for the state of Oregon during 1977 to 1981 was 54% (Table 1). Additionally, in Oregon during the postneonatal period, of 690 deaths among newborns with a birth weight of 2,500 g and greater, sudden infant death syndrome accounted for 408(59%) and accidents and homicide for another 59 (18%). Of the remaining 223 deaths, lethal congenital anomalies were responsible for 112, or 50% (Table 2). This tends to affirm the view of Goldenberg and co-workers that the limit of improvement in infant mortality for this birth weight group attainable by standard medical care using existing knowledge is being approached.
Search Begins for 'Silent' Endocrine Infections; Molecular Probes Seek Evidence of Viruses
Authors: Chris Anne Raymond
Journal: JAMA (1987)

AFTER A DECADE of research, investigators from the Scripps Clinic and Research Foundation in La Jolla, Calif, are on the brink of clinical testing of a novel hypothesis of viral infection. They will be collecting tissue samples to search for evidence of so-called "silent infections." Many have speculated on the possibility that human endocrine disorders, including diabetes, were caused by viruses (<i>JAMA</i>1978;240:1219-1225). While rare cases of virus-induced diabetes have been reported (<i>N Engl J Med</i>1979;300:1173-1179;<i>Lancet</i>1980;2:354-358), in most instances, people suffering from such disorders simply don't have the usual evidence of viral infection— cell lysis, necrosis, and inflammation. Abner L. Notkins, MD, a diabetes specialist with the National Institute for Dental Research in Bethesda, Md., is rooting for the Scripps group. He thinks their work "is at the very frontier" and may eventually add a "new dimension" to the way clinicians look at disease. However, it is
OPERATIVE TREATMENT OF IRREDUCIBLE DISLOCATIONS OF THE SHOULDER JOINT, RECENT OR OLD, SIMPLE OR COMPLICATED.
Authors: EDMOND SOUCHON
Journal: JAMA (1898)

<h3>HISTORY.</h3> One morning in 1895, upon visiting my wards in the Charity Hospital, I found an old man with a case of irreducible dislocation of the shoulder of three months standing. He suffered much pain and was anxious for relief. I remembered having seen, during the many years of my connection with this hospital, some eight or ten cases of such irreducible dislocations. Two, who had been put through the extension and manipulation processes, had suffered fracture of the bone near the head. None of those who had resisted tractions and manipulations of all sorts, had been operated; all had been turned away to remain crippled for the remainder of their days. And yet they were under the care of such men as Stone, Richardson, Smyth, Logan, Chopin, Schuppert, all men of recognized judgment and unsurpassed daring. Later, upon writing to a member of thisAssociation, who had once graced

Cardiac Catheterization in a Community Hospital
Authors: Paul B. Jennings
Journal: JAMA (1967)

The role of the community hospital in the performance of specialized diagnostic procedures has been under scrutiny recently by hospital administrators, the federal government, and practicing physicians. With this in mind, the results of eight years of cardiac catheterization in a community hospital have been surveyed. Results support the concept that this is a low-risk procedure, and that a community hospital offers an excellent place for screening potential surgical candidates. Discussion shows the value of such a laboratory to patient, physician, and community.
Recent Events of Special Interest to Medical Education
Authors: Richard L. Egan
Journal: JAMA (1985)

For several years this section of the EDUCATION ISSUE has reviewed "Recent Events of Special Interest to Medical Education." An event of current importance to the education of physicians in the United States is the recent revision of standards. On Feb 19,1985, the Liaison Committee on Medical Education (LCME) adopted a new set of standards for programs conducted by US medical schools. These standards were subsequently approved by the American Medical Association (AMA) Council on Medical Education (March 3, 1985) and by the Association of American Medical Colleges (AAMC) Executive Council (April 4, 1985). The document, "Functions and Structure of a Medical School; Standards for Accreditation of Medical Education Programs Leading to the MD Degree" is reprinted in this section of the EDUCATION ISSUE. Eighty-five years ago this month the first EDUCATION ISSUE contained an article entitled "Changes in Our Medical Schools Necessary to Meet Modern Conditions."1 At that time
